Canadiens’ Carey Price Unveils New CCM Goalie Gear on Twitter

Carey Price unveiled his highly anticipated new CCM-branded pads on his Twitter account (@CP0031) on Monday.

Carey Price finally put a name to the face of his new line of goaltending equipment when he unveiled a photo of his CCM-branded pads and gloves for the upcoming season on Twitter.

“New gear for this season!,” was all Price wrote on his @CP0031 account, but the exclamation mark said a lot.

Price was first spotted wearing all-white, unbranded pads at skates in Kelowna earlier this summer, with the lone identifying mark on the side: a “Made in Canada by Lefevre” badge typically found only on Reebok products.

That led to no shortage of speculation about the pads, which featured knee rolls, and Price finally ended a lot of it Monday with photos of both the leg pads and gloves, which included a binding-less blocker and a new-look trapper some are already calling the 600 series.

In addition to CCM, which is owned by Reebok, Price’s new gear was branded with “EXtreme Flex Pro,” another indication the new line of equipment will be targeted towards goaltenders wanting a softer, more flexible pad.

David is one of the founders of InGoal Magazine which he began in 2009.
Of course he finds time for some goaltending of his own as well, and despite his age, clings desperately to the idea that some NHL team will call him to play for them - though in his mid-forties (OK, late 40s) it'll likely be for a practice when everyone else on their depth chart has the flu and the shooter tutor has gone in for repairs.

Look real nice as a tender I would love to see them up close and personal so I can get better look @ them. As for Carey not real suprised as he seems to tinker with his stuff like I do. So hopefully we will get him and them in action this season

Just saw this up close and personal at the Canadian hockey show. Glove and blocker are pretty similar to the p4. One piece cuff with the exception to a slightly different break. The senior line model, the extreme flex400 pad features buckles and not traditional leather straps. Other than that, the 500 series and pro line look very well made and quite similar to the larceny pad. You also get the choice of single and double break as well.

They look like his Vaughn V4/V5.P4s are too ridgid and give off too much of a rebound,Vaughns are softer and hold rebounds close to you allowing you to puck easier.Maybe CCMs are a soft as well. Im sure if it wasnt for sponsorship dollars Carey Price would be in Vaughns still.
